I'm going through Airslide's tutorial in the Official Guide: "How to create dead people in Milkshape" and at the end it says "you'll have to make it FPSC ready yourself". I'd be grateful if anyone can tell me how.

Use Wetham's Entity Workshop. First you need to export your model as a DirectX file (.x).

Temporarly away from the Phoenix Sentry.

Will importing it into EW still retain the texture?

I don't think so..you'll have to add the texture yourself. I did it by importing into EW and it wasn't much trouble at all to add the texture though.
Either that or you could just make an .fpe file for it yourself (much faster IMHO)

EDIT: and it looks like Bigsnake beat me to the full explanation

Edit : I see everybody has answerd literly at the same time as I typed all this

This is how to do it manually without using any fpsc tools :

Well , First you will need a bmp image of the dead person so ppl will know what it looks like in the libary. Just take a print screen of it in milkshape then use something like gimp 2 or paint.net to crop it and maybe remove the background and make it look fancy using the magic wand selections tools

Secondly you will need the texture for it so just put that in the same folder as the bmp image

Thirdly you are gunna need the script , ive edited the dog man script since thats a dead body



That should be it/

You should now have the folling in your entitybank

modelname.bmp
modeltexture.TGA(.DDS)
modelname.FPE

That should be it. If ive missed anything out or got anything wrong then correct me anybody

Isn't that an FPE file, and not an FPI script?

Also that ENTITY NAME in the desc should match the name of the BMP.

So, in this case it should be modelname

Yeah, there's no scaling or anything special needed because it's already an FPSC ready model, you just need the .fpe.
